Bread - So Much a Part of LifeWritten by Arleen M. Kaptur
Continued from page 1 The convenience of electric mixers with dough hooks and even bread machiens, frozen loaves of bread that just need to have that "finishing touch" - there is really no excuse not to bake bread, not because you have to - but because you want to. Fall and all upcoming holidays are an inspiration for your own creativity with spices, fruits, and other delights that give your loaf your "perfect touch". Bread baking - memory making - they just go together. Try it - and rewards will just bring you back to kitchen to bake "one more loaf". ENJOY! ©Arleen M. Kaptur 2003 September

| | Just a Touch of AutumnWritten by Arleen M. Kaptur
Continued from page 1 There are gourds and straw bales and garden decorating and soon assorted night-time creatures will be lurking around corners and doorways. Fall is Fun - Autumn is absolutely tantalizing. Whether you are sipping on a warm glass of apple cider or working your way through a corn maze - just make sure that you and your family or friends venture out and take advantage of each and every Fall day - and don't forget that true sign of Autumn - a campfire or bonfire in your back yard or in a woodsy campground. The scents of Fall fill air and breezes bring adventure anew. Jump in that leave pile like you were a kid again, and toast those marshmallows. You are never too old or young to enoy Fall - so ENJOY! ©Arleen M. Kaptur 2003 September
